The Taipei signing concert was held in the rare setting of a comfortable outdoor lawn. Ding Dang specially performed an acoustic medley, allowing fans to enjoy the fresh and relaxing vibe of music by the grassy field with a gentle breeze. Rainie Yang also appeared at the celebration concert and book signing event, presenting a beautifully crafted picnic basket, and inviting Ding Dang—who had always wanted to go on a picnic but never had the chance—to unwind together with her best friend. Both said they really wanted to lie barefoot on the grass, getting close to nature and fully relaxing their bodies.

Through her songs and commercials, Ding Dang has repeatedly become part of the ordinary urban lives of people like you and me. Just like her new song “You’ve Always Been There,” which transforms into an invisible force that “has always been there” to accompany and encourage. In real life, she has indeed “stepped into” Taipei life for as long as nine years. Her first lifestyle book, 《Ding Dang: The Taipei Life I Fell in Love With》, is divided into four major chapters, featuring 68 food, fun, and shopping mini trips, and planning five styled walking routes, taking readers into her own recorded Taipei life. Having achieved bestseller success with her first book, Ding Dang can’t stop: “I even dreamed about writing a second book to share and recommend makeup and weight-loss tips!”

The book that recommends her favorite Taipei life is also cleverly paired with her favorite songs, allowing fans and readers to explore attractions while flipping through the pages and listening to Ding Dang’s songs at the same time. Eight themed sections from the book have been specially selected in collaboration with KKBOX, offering eight curated playlists by Ding Dang, inviting everyone to experience Ding Dang’s Taipei life together.
